Don't go hatin' on our banjo Ted. We likes it ;o)

Like any entity that abandons basic quality control, political parties rot from within. It happened to the Democrats long ago, and now has become the case with the Republican Party, which has strayed from its conservative underpinnings.
There are really only four things I have a strong aversion to: unloaded guns, dull knives, banjos, and Republicans in Name Only (RINOs).
The Nugent family simply doesn't allow any of those things in our lives.

Do a new contract with America - if we ever take control, rule according to principles and not pork. One goal must be to get out of the housing business. Fannie and Freddie must earn their way to 10% real capital and then break them into 10 companies each and them off - and not to BoA or Citi.
RINO season is open all year, with no bag limit....throw the bums out.
It’s not infighting it’s a PURGE. We don’t need RINO’s we need solid conservatives. The tent ain’t that big.
In a recent local interview with Frank Beckmann, he did not rule out a run for MI Governor.
No we don’t.
Like you said.
The Democrat’s started running more conservative candidates and they won. We take back those conservatice districts and we’re in the majority without needing RINO’s to get us there.
The only people that have been alienated by this party the last four years have been conservatives.
On the topic of elections, how about a thorough investigation of ACORN and mandatory photo I.D’s to vote in this country. ACORN won it for Obama.
Lock and Load. The Great RINO Hunt of ‘09 starts today.
Federalism. Tastes great, less filling.
In case anyone missed it; read “A Veterans Day Lesson for the GOP” by James R. Stewart, on Free Thinker website. Great read!
Oh J!!! XOXOXOXOXOXO!!!!!!!!!! :-)
what about doing away with ‘Winner Take All’ primaries...
Texas, known to be a red state, at least until the illegals get the right to vote, did not have a chance to vote in this election.
McCain would not have been the top choice...
The republican party destroyed itself, or has put itself on the verge, by not allowing infighting.
Or outfighting, or any controversy at all; just note the way that conservative/alternate ideas were treated by the party during the 2008 pre-election tent show.
You won't get any new or rediscovered ideas by nodding heads and sending out requests for more funding.
If we bled voters for four years it only means we had the edge in 2002 and screwed it up.
The same screw ups are in charge of the party today as yesterday,
a little infighting seems very much in order.
"Alienate our candidates on the margin"?
McCain, Arnold and their ilk have alienated the ten or so percent who didn't bother to vote.
They alienated those of us who did vote (again) without being given a choice.
Their only friends are on the other side of the aisle and you can bet that they'll fall in line now that there is no "R" in the White House.
On the other hand, they are probably still stunned at the fact that a back woods state governor stole their fire and made it a close race.
As long as they are already stunned, why not hope for others to step in and rewire the damn thing?
The question is how the Dems are pulling in seat with moderates but keeping them ‘on the reservation’. Our moderates constantly screw the party. Their moderates are staying quiet and playing along.
Our current voting system is based on the “honor system”. How insane is that?!
